Bonus Blog: Excellence Club at Excellence Resorts

This month is "Excellent Resorts" month. We're going to the "Playa Mujeres" property in a couple of weeks and we cannot wait to tell you all about it! In honor of our trip, we'll be sharing information about this resort chain with locations in Mexico & Dominican Republic over the next few weeks.

Many childfree resorts offer a "Premium Section" for those looking for another level of, well excellence, on their vacation. Every client whom I have upgraded to the "Excellence Club" agreed that the splurge was well worth it!

The Excellence Club is for guests who demand the ultimate in luxury, exclusivity and service. From the moment you arrive, you will experience the Excellence Club difference.

You’ll be treated to express check-in and check-out service in a private VIP lounge area. The lounge is solely for the use of Club guests and has free Internet access, snack buffets and bar service. Consider it your own private club to use any time.

At Excellence Club Punta Cana, Riviera Cancun or Playa Mujeres, suites feature premium amenities with ocean views, or garden and mountain views in Punta Cana. Plus swim-up units and rooftop terraces suites in our Mexican properties as well as honeymoon suites and one-bedroom Imperial suites.

Expect ultra pampering, ultra privilege.

Our staff is on hand 24 hours a day to make sure your stay as comfortable as possible and that every aspect is attended to even the smallest details.

The fresh flowers in your room will surprise you, the daily fresh fruit, premium mini bar and Bvlgari toiletries will delight you. And Club benefits extend beyond your suite. Guests enjoy a private beach area and, depending on the property, a private pool area, along with a Club-members only bar. Here’s what you can expect as an Excellence Club guest:

Excellent Resorts - It's All in the Name...

This month is "Excellent Resorts" month. We're going to the "Playa Mujeres" property in a couple of weeks and we cannot wait to tell you all about it! In honor of our trip, we'll be sharing information about this resort chain with locations in Mexico & Dominican Republic over the next few weeks.

Imagine an adults only universe where all inclusive means all the freedom to celebrate each day your way. No children. No distractions. No interruptions. No demands on your time. Only a stunning Caribbean setting and all inclusive luxury intended to spark simple pleasures, hushed conversations and private moments. The world is your own.

Excellence Resorts, an adult’s only oasis that is filled with little hideaways and big possibilities. Time ebbs and flows like the ocean tide. However romance speaks to you, you will find it at the three all-inclusive resorts in the Rivera Maya, Cancun and Punta Cana. It is in the sunlight, in the sea air and in the sugar white sand beaches.

Celebrate it all… with a torchlit dinner for two on the beach, a private hammock at your suite or a romantic stroll along the beach. So be part of it and start enjoying the blue Caribbean sea with your beloved one. Excellence Club is a way to lose yourself in a way that only an all-inclusive adults resorts can make possible.

El Dorado Spa Resorts & Hotels by Karisma: The Gourmet Inclusive Experience

Did you know that “Childfree Travel” only promotes preferred resorts that are all-inclusive? Sometimes all-inclusive resorts can get a bad reputation for offering a low-quality, cookie-cutter product at a bargain-basement price. While those properties do exist, they are the complete opposite from the luxury, all-inclusive products in our portfolio. During the month of March we are going to explore all-inclusive travel and discover some of the amazing features our childfree resorts offer for our clients.

Just because all of our resorts offer an "all-inclusive" experience does not mean that they offer the SAME all-inclusive experience. This is very apparent with the four El Dorado properties in Riviera Maya. Their inclusive concept focuses on food and thus is aptly named the "Gourmet Inclusive Experience". These are the perfect resorts for guests who enjoy the finest when it comes to cuisine. 

The rules are simple: El Dorado promises to the best ingredients and never be satisfied with anything that is just "good", but instead strive for excellence. This is reflected in the variety, quality, creativity, presentation, innovation and good taste of the restaurants, where guests can enjoy a magnificent selection of continental, international, Mexican, Italian, Asian and Caribbean delights in an exclusive atmosphere with personalized service.

The star team of chefs responsible for all culinary success, have experience working at first-class venues, renowned worldwide by Michelin and Zagat as the best restaurants in the world. The "Gourmet Inclusive" concept has not gone unrecognized and the resorts have garnered many awards like the coveted Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence.
